    IRS & Wheel ?

    Does anyone know if a 16x9 wheel with a 5" backspace will fit with an IRS.

    I run the 16" diamond racing wheels on my IRS. I have to check on the back spacing.

    I think you can get a pair for about $275

    Just call them up and tell them you need the wheels for an 03/04 cobra with IRS.

    Drag Radials Can still hop violently at the track.
    MT makes a 17" ET Street.
    Get the ET Street not the ET Street Radial.
    The Diamond Racing wheels with the 26x11.5x16 ET Street is the best deal.
    They have tubes in them so you can run a lower pressure.
    The 17" ET Street is tubeless and tend to sway with low pressure.
